I woke up to see a sleeping Kentrell laying next to me with his mouth wide open snoring so I took that as a chance to leave. I slowly got outta bed quietly tiptoeing to my suitcase picking out something random since I was naked. I picked out a sundress and sneakers slowly gathering my things and throwing them in my suitcase

"What da fuck you doin?" Trell asked snatching my dress outta my hand scaring the hell outta me

I thought he was sleep, fuck bruh

"Away from you" I grabbed another dress, he snatched that one too kicking the suitcase away from me

"Why you keep tryna leave me mane?" He asked sounding hurt, you could see it in his facial expressions that he was hurt

"Because Kentrell I can't stay with yo-

"Yes you can you just don't want ta" he said clenching both his fist looking mad

"Kentrell if we met another way then yeah I would stay with you but I can't just sit here and destroy a happy relationship" I explained and he sucked his teeth coming closer to me

"You not destroying nun. Dat relationship been ova when I found out she was cheatin on me" he explained and I scrunched my face up at him

"Weren't you cheating too?" I asked already knowing the answer

"I only started cheatin on ha cus she been had cheated on me. I started ta mess witchu cus you ha idol" he explained and I looked at him like he was crazy

"So you never really wanted me?" I asked feeling some type of way

"I neva said dat lemme finish" he sighed coming to stand directly in front of me

"I knew fucking witchu was gon hurt ha bad but I fucked round and caught feelings fa yo ass. Na I can't getcho pretty ass outta my head no matta how hard I try, I can't. When you left dat hurt a nigga bad, youn kno how bad it hurt a Nigga ta kno you was gone" he explained staring deep into my eyes

"You should've left me alone then, you put me in a bad situation so I had no choice but to get away" I said looking away from him once the eye contact got too intense

"I'm not gon eva leave you 'lone rather you like it or not, I can't and I won't" he made very clear grabbing my chin making me look up at him

"Kentrell why are you making this so hard?" I asked staring into his eyes. I didn't mean to but I got caught up in how beautiful his eyes were, I just can't get over how pretty they are

"Cus I love you. I kno youn love me back but I love you, I've been tryna fight da feelin but I can't fight it no mo. You just do sum ta me dat I can't explain" he explained and not gon lie he looked so vulnerable

When those words left his mouth I couldn't help but to blush, my heart jumped with joy but I had to keep it cool I can't let him know that I love him too "say sum anything mane, you makin a nigga nervous and shit" he said pulling at his hair

"Kentrell I-I don't know what to say"

"You love me back?"

"No" I looked away from him knowing if I kept looking at him he would know I'm lying

"Look me in my eyes n tell me dat then" he grabbed my chin reconnecting our eye contact. I just stared at him not wanting to admit it "tell me" he demanded

"Kentrell stop, leave me alone" I pushed him away walking away from him, he pulled me back into his chest

"Tell me da truth then" he demanded. I sighed and turned around to face him

"Kentrell I love you ok. I try not to but it's hard when everytime I push you away you pull me back and I hate it, I hate feeling like you have control over me. I've never felt like this before and it scares the fuck outta me. Why you think I ran from you?" I asked on the verge of crying

"Lani don't cry" he hugged me rubbing my back

"I didn't even mean to fall for you, it just happened on accident. I'm sorry but I can't, I can't be with you. I'm so scared to a point where you don't understand. You been with Jaz for 3 years and still did her like that I don't want that to happen to me" I cried harder. I never really cry like that or express my feelings I keep everything bottled up so when I finally do let it out I can't stop

"It was 2 years. She cheated on me first, had a whole baby on me, I won't eva do you like dat no matta what, ion have it in me ta hurt you but you keep thinkin I am" he sighed

"How can I not think that? You're already in a relationship tryna get in one with me"

"I'm not in a relationship no mo" he said and I looked up at him surprised

"I told you not to do it because you think I wa-

"I didn't do it cus of dat, I did it cus I wanted ta. I wasn't happy wid ha, I'm happy when I'm wid you. Even if we'on get in a relationship I'm still happy dat I get ta be round you" he explained and not gon lie that touched my heart

"You remember that conversation we had the morning after the club?" I asked and he nodded looking down on me "I didn't lie but actions speak louder than words so show me and maybe this could work" I pointed between the both of us. A big Koolaid smiled stretched across his lips once I said that

"You serious?" He excitedly asked and I nodded smiling along with him "let's goooo" he excitedly said picking me up spinning me in circles

"Ok that's enough I'm dizzy" I laughed at how happy he was

"My bad mama" he laughed sitting down on the bed with me in his lap. I blushed at the nickname and I guess he noticed because he started smiling at me

"What?" I asked putting my head in my hands becoming nervous under his stare

"Nun" he shook his head licking his lips moving my hands away from my face. I yawned while stretching causing him to grunt, I looked at him scrunching my face up

"What's wrong?" I asked laying my head on his chest feeling sleepy

"Nun" he shook his head "you sleepy?" He asked and I nodded, he laid back on the bed getting under the covers snuggling me closely to him
